More heart stuff.
Last weekend things seemed to be getting worse instead of better. We called the Dr's over the weekend and whoever was on call seemed to think I was experiencing a normal recovery and to just call the Dr's office on Monday. By the time we heard back from the Dr's on Monday and I shared my list of ailments, they said for us to get to the ER immediately. I was loosing my vision, short of breath, dizzy spells, migrains, chest pain, heart racing and a painful paper cut! So we were in the ER until 1:30am, and needed to be back for another ultra sound at 9 a.m. so with such a long drive between us we just got a hotel room and crashed! Apparently I can't tolerate the increase in the beta blocker, so we decreased that and as of Wed. things started to take an up swing! My heart seems to hurt more, racing more, but the shortness of breath is gone, and I don't feel so out of it. The rest of the list should get better within the next few months, so they say. Everything looked really good and the plug is doing just what it should so that is a huge praise! I got back on the eliptical and did a slow 5 minutes and was completely spent! 10 days ago I did 4 miles in 50 minutes, so I can't imagine where I'd be if I hadn't done anything! It'll come, I'm just not very good at laying low. The little kids love it because I'm reading lots of books. And Jeff and the older kids have been fabulous! So many blessings to count!

I heard that you went back with some problems, so we have been praying for all of you. Glad to hear that you got some answers.
We'll stay on our knees.
